Can't make it to the Twenty-Year Celebration? Come join the House of the Voyagers on May 3, A.S. XXI, for as pleasant a day on the greensward as a lord or lady could wish for. Our site is small but beautiful Tournament Park (Wilson Ave. and Cornell Rd.) in Pasadena. A planned potluck dinner, followed by a revel and bardic circle, will be held in the dining hall of Dabney dormitory on the Caltech campus.
- For the fighters, we shall hold a heavy weapons "wounds retained" tournament.
- For the amorous, there will be a dance around the May pole.
- For the hungry, we will be selling roast turkey legs for lunch.
- For the thirsty, the tourney and revel sites are both "DAMP" (beer & wine).
- For everyone, we shall present an excerpt from Shakspeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Contests and workshops:
- Body looting (yes, it's as interesting as it sounds)
- Best "sour grapes" story of why you're not going to TYC
- Most beautiful garland
- Origami (Workshop & contest)
